What steps will reproduce the problem?

Brought over from issue #2313.

I was trying to find a workaround for the inlined functions issue with gccgo:

http://stackoverflow.com/questions/1474030/how-can-i-tell-gcc-not-to-inline-a-function

I tried this the function pointer suggestion, but I got:

call of non-function C.foo_ptr

Might be nice if that could work. I think it will help when wrapping the JVM API too.

Please provide any additional information below.

small example attached. I think it's right.

Comment 4:

Note that you can work around this by writing a C function 'call' in the header that you
use to call a particular type of function pointer + arguments combination. And then use
C.call(C.foo_ptr, args).
I agree that it would be nice if it worked as C.foo_ptr(args) though.

I believe this is as fixed as it ever will be.  See misc/cgo/test/fpvar.go.
